What's wrong
Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain 2019 Mack Anthem (AN), Granite (GR), and Pinnacle (PI) vehicles. The pinch bolt on the upper steering shaft may not have been tightened, possibly resulting in the steering shaft separating and causing a loss of steering.
The risk
A loss of steering can increase the risk of a crash.

Mack will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles for any loose pinch bolts, correcting the vehicles as necessary, free of charge. The recall began November 30, 2018. Owners may contact Mack customer service at 1-800-866-1177. Mack's number for this recall is SC0413.
